Yorkville Wine Pairing Recipes

2023 Sauvignon Blanc

An intriguing celebration of fruit and spices, with notes of white peach and passionfruit, this Sauvignon Blanc is perfect for light, fresh dishes.

Recommended Pairing: Grilled Shrimp Salad

  • Ingredients:
    • 1 lb fresh shrimp, peeled and deveined
    • 4 cups mixed greens (arugula, spinach)
    • 1 avocado, sliced

    • Toss greens, avocado, tomatoes, and onion with vinaigrette.
    • Top with grilled shrimp and serve with a chilled glass of Sauvignon Blanc.

Why it works: The wine’s white peach and passionfruit notes complement the bright, zesty flavors of the shrimp and lemon vinaigrette, while its light body balances the salad’s freshness.

2021 Cabernet Sauvignon

A medium-bodied wine with smooth tannins, spice, and toasted walnut aromas, this Cabernet Sauvignon pairs beautifully with hearty, savory dishes.
